Deal with full path in .file 0 directive
Gas uses the directory part, if present, of the .file 0 directive to set entry 0 of the directory table in DWARF 5, which represents the "current directory". Now Gas also uses the file part of the same directive to set entry 0 of the file table, which represents the "current compilation file". But the latter need not be located in the former so GCC will use a full path in the file part when it is passed a full path: gcc -c /full/path/test.c -save-temps yields: .file 0 "/current/directory" "/full/path/test.c" in the assembly file and: The Directory Table (offset 0x22, lines 2, columns 1): Entry Name 0 (indirect line string, offset: 0x25): /current/directory 1 (indirect line string, offset: 0x38): /full/path The File Name Table (offset 0x30, lines 2, columns 2): Entry Dir Name 0 0 (indirect line string, offset: 0x43): /full/path/test.c in the object file. Note the full path and the questionable Dir value in the 0 entry of the file table.
